Abstract: The study on the life cycle and tenure of chief executive is a complicated issue, not only because of its longitudinal nature for maintaining a high validity, but also the availability of its various relating interpretation in terms of different theoretical concepts. In spite of the research conducted so far, the fact that the hotel general manager (GM) is both conceptually and practically the chief executive officer of the hotel (Nebel, 1991) has not been sufficiently investigated in the past studies. This research serves as a starting point for further study on the topic - the multiple characteristics of the life cycle of a hotel GM's tenure.
